Explains what Chicago police can and cannot do during a home lockout, when to call them versus a licensed locksmith, and what to expect if you dial 911 by mistake.
This is a topic our Chicago-based team gets asked about constantly. Below we walk through what you actually need to know, in plain language, from the perspective of locksmiths who handle these calls across the Chicago area every day.
If you would rather just have it handled, we are a phone call away at (773) 900-4533 — 24 hours a day. We will give you a clear price before any work starts.
